Answer 1

Answer

The number of children in town is 2839.

Step-by-step explanation:

To Find :-

• The number of children in the town.

★ Solution

Given that,

• Total population of a town = 9659
• Number of males and females in the town = 3562 and 3258 respectively.

∴ The total number/population of only males and females :-

⇒ 3562 + 3258

⇒ 6820

Now, According the question,

• Total number of children in the Town :-

No. of children = Total population - No. of males and females.

⇒ 9659 - 6820

⇒ 2839

Hence,

The total number of children in town is 2839.
